mirabelbunanza

When I saw the call out for handmade bunnies over at Meetmeatmikes for The Mirable Foundation, I knew the Easter bunny I was going to make for Archie should go to a little peep that needed it more.

I used a pattern from a borrowed library book, Crafty Creatures by Jane Bull. I gave the bunny a waldorf twist with a felt crown and some woollen hair. Unless I plan on becoming a finger contortionist anytime soon I must remember to print out that pattern larger next time. I had an awful time turning the tiny sewn pattern pieces outside in and stuffing them.

Bunnies are due in by the 15 March 2015. All the details are at Pip's Mirabelbunanza post.

If you know of any charity sewing/crafty makings throughout the year, please let me know. I'd love to help. I can always fit in time around home duties for small acts of kindness. It always feels good to do good doesn't it?
